Our 10 Principles

The Millions of Jobs Coalition calls on Congressional leaders to support and enact the kind of “Jobs and Infrastructure” legislation that the country needs. We must embrace an expansive vision of the American economy that creates millions of jobs, puts 21st-century public investment first, advances economic equity for historically disenfranchised Americans, and protects the environment.

Prioritize resilient infrastructure that can withstand natural disasters and cyber or physical attacks.

We simultaneously call on Congress to reject any false promises of a job and infrastructure plan centered on privatizing America. Trump has made clear that his plan will rely heavily on selling off public roads to Wall Street billionaires and foreign corporations that would place new tolls on Americans and ignore the needs of everyday people. We call for a program that ensures that those on whom economic fortune has shined most brightly will pay their fair share.

There is much at stake for our nation’s future. Taxpayers should not subsidize billionaires and Wall Street banks as they privatize and sell off public assets. We fight for Americans who have been excluded from America’s prosperity, and we stand for a green-growth economy that generates good jobs.
